As to our fellow-servant Burrhus, your deacon in regard to God and blessed in all things, I pray that he may con- tinue blameless for the honour of the Church, and of your most blessed bishop. Crocus also, worthy both of God and you, whom we have received as the manifestation ^ of your love to us, hath in all things refreshed ^ me, and "hath not been ashamed of my chain," ^ as the P'ather of our Lord Jesus Christ will also refresh ^ him ; together with Onesimus, and Burrhus, and Euplus, and Fronto, by means of whom I have, as to love, beheld all of you. May I always have joy of you, if indeed I be worthy of it. It is therefore befitting that you should in every way glorify Jesus Christ, who hath glorified you, that by a unanimous obedience " ye may be perfectly joined to- gether in the same mind and in the same judgment, and may all speak the same thing concerning the same thing," 5 and that, being subject to the bishop and the presbytery, ye may in all respects be sanctified.
